I have a 2007 Eddie 4x4 with tow package, i am having a puddle of antifreeze show up right front you can see it running down from radiator, cannot see any leak from hose at radiator its not the hose assembly for rear heat either, is it possible the drain plug is leaking, can it be replaced, the pics i see of it show O-rings which will flatten and leak over time.

297K still runs great, bought new July 2007

replacing radiator looks like 6+ hours for an amateur which i truly am, thought i would do serpentine belt and hoses as well, the bottom looks like a bear, and the reservoir hose may need a o-ring, might need that size as well

but it could just be the drain plug o rings, only leaks under high temp and pressure

Any thoughts
